Artist Lecture & Dance/Video Demonstration

Benton-C Bainbridge and Brooke Broussard

Dancer/choreographer Brooke Broussard and video artist
Benton-C Bainbridge will present a lecture demonstration with a live
dancing element. Brooke and Benton most recently collaborated on
“Infinite Light,” a multi-media event in China that combined modern
dance performance with custom-designed media art. “Infinite Light”
blends dance and video projections in visual manifestations of
choreographed “flowers,” “trees” and even a “Big Bang.”

Artist bios:
Bainbridge, based in the Bronx and Nashville, works with video as a
painterly and performable medium. Bainbridge has presented video in
immersive environments, screenings, installations and live performances
across 5 continents, collaborating with artists around the world,
including The Beastie Boys.

Broussard is a native of Louisiana, where she began to
grow into modern dance. She has toured and performed her own
choreography extensively within the US and internationally.  Her work
incorporates neuroscience, emotional states, and inventive,
improvisational movement, culminating in groundbreaking multi-media
performance art. Collaborating with musicians, visual artists, and
advancing technologies, her visions venture away from the typical dance
performance into a new generation of tech savvy performance.
